Chapter 212 Family Council
The old man sitting on the left hand side of Zhu Bocai, wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning, is Zhu Bocai's cousin Zhu Boping.
Although he is only five years younger than Zhu Bocai, he looks at least ten years older. If it weren't for his white hair, he would be no different from a middle-aged man.
Zhu Boping's face was full of anger, and his eyes were full of anger. He wished he could crush all of Zhu Bocai and Ding Wangfu into powder to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Among the dozens of tribesmen gathered at the scene, 90% of them only followed Zhu Boping.
As Zhu Boping shouted angrily, all the tribesmen stood up to join in and immediately besieged Zhu Bocai.
"That's unreasonable! Are you bullying anyone in my Zhu family?!"
"Although Zhu Chun is not his eldest grandson, he is still a direct bloodline, but you just watched that lunatic Zhao Huan abuse his private business and kill Zhu Chun. What a misfortune for the family!"
"Hmph, what's there to be polite about now? Let me tell you, Zhu Bocai and Zhao Huan are the same."
"That's right. You rushed all the way back to Bianjing. Didn't you just come back to curry favor with Zhao Huan because he was so powerful?"
"Not long ago, you still regarded Zhu Fengying and Prince Yun as the Zhu family's support. This attitude changed too quickly. Is this the saying that whoever has breasts is a mother?!"
The tribesmen's words became more and more unpleasant. They didn't care about Zhu Bocai's status as the clan leader.
As early as when Prince Ding's palace was in decline, Zhu Bocai's family power had been gradually emptied out. Now, except for Zhu Bocai's own lineage, the rest of the clan no longer took him seriously.
In the final analysis, this was Zhu Bocai's own fault. He insisted on marrying Zhu Lian to Zhao Huan, which resulted in the Zhu family wasting ten years of development opportunities.
This is not the first time that members of the clan have put pressure on Zhu Bocai.
Zhu Bocai could still keep his composure: "Zhu Chun is dead, and people cannot be resurrected. What's the use of making noise here?"
"Ten thousand steps back, if Zhu Chun hadn't insisted on clinging to Han Mulu, how could he have caused a fatal disaster?"
"Then who is Han Mulu? He is Cai Jing's brother-in-law. How can anyone easily get attached to him? If he fails to hold on, he will be crippled in the least, or killed in the worst."
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Boping became furious on the spot. He stood up directly, pointed at Zhu Bocai's nose and cursed.
"fart!"
"No matter what Chun'er does, as an uncle, you shouldn't just die without saving him!"
"Don't give me those big reasons. I only know that the person who killed Chun'er was Zhao Huan, and he was your son-in-law. You, an old man, can't escape his involvement."
"A person like you who can even risk death without saving your own nephew is not worthy of being the head of the Zhu family."
"Today I will not only depose you as the clan leader, but I will also make you pay for Chun'er with your life!"
Zhu Bocai was pointed in the nose and scolded by his cousins. No matter how strong his psychological quality was, he couldn't help but feel filled with grief and anger at this time.
Compared with Zhu Boping, the reason why Zhu Bocai is so old is because he has been working hard on family affairs all day long and is so exhausted from work?
Instead of being grateful, the tribesmen in front of them regarded Zhu Bocai as their enemies.
This kind of scene where enemies are happy and relatives are in pain made Zhu Bocai heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do about it.
At this moment, Zhu Peng stood up. Although he had gone astray and been deceived by others, he was unambiguous in safeguarding the interests of the family.
Zhu Peng clenched his fists and yelled: "Uncle, how could you treat my grandfather like this?"
"If Zhu Chun hadn't been disrespectful to Prince Ding, how could Prince Ding..."
Before Zhu Peng could finish speaking, Zhu Boping had already interrupted with a cold snort: "You loser, you still have the nerve to stand up. It's true that if you are shameless, you are invincible."
"Fortunately, you are still the eldest grandson of the Zhu family. Your face was covered in blood after being beaten by Zhao Huan. As a result, you didn't even dare to let out a fart. The Zhu family's face has been completely embarrassed by you."
"Get out of here, you have no place to speak here!"
Zhu Peng's face turned red and his chest felt tight with anger, but he could not refute.
after all……
He has now become one of the laughing stock of Bianjing.
The only person who can calm the situation right now is Zhu Lian!
Zhu Peng quickly looked at Zhu Lian, his eyes full of help.
At this time, Zhu Lian naturally could not stand by and watch. She faced the domineering Zhu Boping directly without being humble or arrogant.
"Why didn't you come to cause trouble when the prince was here?"
"It's just that the prince is not here. It seems that you also know how to pick the weak ones."
Zhu Boping and other clan members all focused their attention on Zhu Lian.
Especially Zhu Boping, his anger became more and more intense.
Not long ago, this woman looked shabby and needed help from her parents' family to survive.
Now you dare to show off in front of Zhu Boping, you should be damned!
Moreover, Zhu Chun's death was caused by this broom star, and Zhu Boping wanted to vent all his anger on Zhu Lian.
"What a wonderful Princess Ding. She is really a person who will treat her with admiration after three days apart."
"Even if Zhu Chun has been at odds with you for ten years, every time Zhu Chun visits Prince Ding's Mansion, he always brings gifts, which can be regarded as disguised relief.
"Even if you have a dog, you still know how to repay your kindness!"
"If you, the Sangmenxing, hadn't been the instigator, how could Chun'er have died? Come on, remove this white-eyed wolf from the family tree immediately!"
Zhu Lian, who had been calm just now, suddenly panicked.
She is the only connection between the Zhu family and Prince Ding's palace. Once she is removed from the family tree, she will no longer be able to legitimately stop Zhu Boping.
"Don't go too far!"
"Only my father has the right to remove names from the family tree!"
Zhu Boping couldn't help but sneer: "Or are you a white-eyed wolf?"
"The rules in the family have been changed a long time ago, and you don't even know it!"
"Except for Zhu Bocai, as long as more than two-thirds of the clan members agree, I can exercise the power of the clan leader on my behalf."
What? Zhu Lian suddenly panicked. She knew that Zhu Boping had always coveted the position of patriarch, but she didn't expect that Zhu Boping would never be late!
How can this be an arrogance? It is clearly a direct seizure of power.
Even when the six thieves were at their most arrogant, they would not dare to treat His Majesty like this.
Zhu Boping clearly wanted to ride on the head of her lineage and dominate her.
Zhu Lian calmed down and immediately looked at the other clan members present.
"You have clearly violated the rules set by Queen Qincheng!"
An uncle from the clan started taunting him angrily: "Are you worthy enough to become the queen?"
"Besides, the rule is that dead people are alive. Are there so many of us worse than a dead person who has been dead for many years?"
Zhu Lian couldn't believe his ears, these guys dared to be rude to Queen Qincheng.
Zhu Bocai couldn't bear it any longer, slapped his hand on the table, and shouted angrily: "Asshole!"
